Emperor Fire

Chapter 3 Escape Route

After entering the tent, Sosuo did not go to sleep immediately, but took out the blanket that Dilling had prepared for him from the interspatial bag, covered himself tightly, and then lay down.Without Dilling by his side, things like covering the blanket can only be done by himself.

He looked at the ceiling, depressed.

The sound of discussion outside the tent came faintly through the curtain.Although their voices were very soft, Soso still heard Olof objecting to something.

After a while, his consciousness gradually drifted away, and Olof lifted the curtain and came in.

Suo Suo remembered, but heard him say coldly: "Go to sleep."

"Oh." Suo Suo readjusted his sleeping position and whispered, "Good night."

There was no response.

What will happen tomorrow?

Soso lost sleep for 10 minutes to think about this problem.

The next day, when Suo Suo woke up, Olof was packing things with Sethon and the others.

Fiona came out of the woods, saw Soso, and smiled kindly: "There is a stream running through the woods, do you have any washing utensils? We'll wait for you here."

"Yes." Soso walked along the location she pointed.

The stream water is very cool.

Soso remembered that the weather in St. Padres seemed to be still warm, and his hands in the water were not so cold.

He finished washing slowly, and after confirming that his entire face had been washed several times, he put away his things and walked back.Without Dilling by his side, he not only had to get used to doing his own things, but also got used to doing everything well and perfectly.

"Wood, your scar is so sexy."

The laughter of Charlotte's mercenaries enlivened the quiet morning.

Sosuo looked curiously at the suddenly extra thick man in front of him.His complexion is very dark, which is the best protective color for night action.There are many whites in his eyes, and when he looks at him, there seems to be a glimmer of light.Most importantly, his teeth were very white, and when he grinned, matching the newly added scar on his right cheek, he had an eerie feeling.

"Let me introduce you." Fiona said, "This is the deputy head of our mercenary group, Wood. He is a seventh-rank knight."

"Hello." Soso saluted him.

Olof and Seton, keenly aware of the side of Wood's body, seemed to want to move away, but stopped halfway.

Wood laughed loudly at Fiona: "You haven't introduced who this little guy is yet."

Fiona looked at Saitong's face, saw him nodding slightly, and said, "He is the second prince Gu Lan, His Highness Suosuo."

"Oh?" Wood showed a look of surprise, "Could it be that our employer this time is actually a royal family? That's really an honor."

Fiona was about to explain Soso's experience when Seton suddenly interrupted: "Let's get in the car first."

"Okay." Wood hurried on the road.

Soso approached Fiona uneasily, "Shall we continue on the road?"

Seeing the obvious anxiety on his face, Fiona said in a soft voice: "Your task is beyond what we can handle at the moment. Therefore, the leader must call other members of the group to vote to decide whether to continue to undertake this task." .Of course, if the mission is cancelled, we will refund you the corresponding gold coins, but not all of them.”

She tried her best to enliven the atmosphere, but Suo Suo's face still darkened uncontrollably.

Fiona patted him on the shoulder, not knowing what to say.Despite her best efforts last night to convince Sethon and Olof to go ahead with the mission, Olof was very much against it.As the leader of the group, Saitong has not expressed his position yet, but she is very clear that if most of the members of the group object, Saitong will never dictatorially deny this result.

The carriage was still heading towards Bot City.

Before the task was clearly lifted, they still followed the original agreement and took a small path to the south.

The team members came back one after another.

Suo Suo felt that there were always many eyes looking at him on weekdays.

Fiona has fewer and fewer opportunities to get along with herself, and every time she appears, Wood is always behind her.He didn't like the way Wood looked at him, but he couldn't tell why, because Wood smiled when he looked at him.Maybe, I just don't like the row of white teeth he showed.

Saitong has to manage the entire mercenary group, and he is too busy to see anyone every day.Olof wandered around a lot, but the air-conditioning on his body kept him alone.Soso didn't dare to approach.He found that although there were more people in the mercenary group, he became more and more lonely.He wanted to ask Saiton several times if he would continue his mission, but was interrupted by others with various reasons.Fortunately, the course had not changed, so he had to acquiesce in business as usual.

Just as he was beginning to adjust to this environment, Sethon suddenly came to his tent.From the day Wood appeared, Soso enjoyed the treatment of one person, one tent.

"His Royal Highness has been wronged these few days." Saitong is Fiona's elder brother, and they are people who are easy to get close to and have a good impression on.

Suo Suo hurriedly said: "No, no, you are too polite, I am used to living here." Of course, this sentence is a white lie.

Whenever he was lonely, he would miss Di Lin even more. Fortunately, he would be able to see him soon.Counting the time, the day they left, they hadn't seen each other for nearly three months.He had to find Dilling before he completed all the trial tasks and set off back to St. Padres.He knew that to prevent him from returning to St. Padres, Marina and Pudo were heavily guarded on the Julan border.

Saitong sat down slowly, and pondered: "Our Charlotte mercenary regiment has a total of 32 members. As of yesterday, all of them have returned to the regiment."

Are there 32?Suo Suo only felt that there were always strange faces flashing in front of him, but he never seriously counted them.

"The vote on whether to continue the task you entrusted, the result was 29 votes against and [-] votes in favor." Seeing Suo Suo's face turned pale, Sai Tong said, "So, I decided to go to the nearest city of Meixiu tomorrow to release Our agreement."

Suo Suo's lips trembled, his expression extremely frustrated, but he still nodded slowly, "Okay, I understand. I'm sorry for causing you trouble these days."

Saitong only felt that his heart seemed to be grabbed by something.But he is an eighth-rank knight after all, with a will almost like steel.He quickly regained his composure, and said again: "But don't worry, I will refund you six hundred gold coins. With this money, you can find another mercenary group. Maybe someone is willing to take the risk."

Suo Suo raised his head and said shyly, "We have already walked nearly half of the distance, and six hundred gold coins is too much. You should take more."

Saitong turned his face away, stood up and said, "We took the initiative to terminate the agreement, and we have already taken advantage of this price."

"Thank you." Sosuo Bainen's face was full of gratitude.

Seton smiled, then turned around and got out of the tent, exhaled deeply, and looked up to see Fiona standing not far away, looking at him mockingly. "Fiona," he whispered.

Fiona turned back to her tent.There were other women in the mercenary group, so he didn't have to share a tent with Seton.

It's getting dark fast these days.

After Suo Suo had dinner, he didn't go back to the tent as early as the previous few days, but sat silently watching them talking and laughing.

This is the last time we eat together.he thinks.Maybe he should cherish this time.

Fiona came over with a grilled chicken wing, "I baked this chicken wing myself, let's eat some more."

Although Suo Suo couldn't eat anymore, he was not good at refusing, so he took it silently.

"Hey. What are you talking about?" Wood chased after Fiona's ass.

A trace of disgust flashed in Fiona's eyes, but she quickly smiled and said, "The more you talk about your scar, the more it looks like an earthworm that can't get into your face."

Wood sneered, "You said it was sexy last time."

Fiona said, "I didn't see clearly last time."

Soso looked at Wood, then at Fiona, and suddenly said, "Are you pursuing Fiona?"

Wood and Fiona were taken aback at the same time.

Wood gave Fiona an embarrassed look, "His Royal Highness really likes to joke. Haha."

Fiona said lightly: "It's really not funny at all."

Wood shrugged and walked towards another girl with interest.

Fiona suddenly whispered to Soso: "Don't sleep tonight."

Suo Suo was in a daze, and was about to ask what he meant when he saw the girl next to Wood coming over, pulling Fiona and saying, "My hair is messed up, please help me tidy it up."

Fiona patted Soso's shoulder meaningfully, and let the girl pull her away.

The dinner party soon ended, and Soso returned to the tent, still thinking about Fiona's words.

Don't sleep?why?

The surroundings gradually quieted down.

As Suo Suo lay down, his eyelids became heavy, but his reason always reminded him to stay awake when he was about to fall asleep.

Another hour or so passed.

He finally couldn't hold it anymore, and was about to fall asleep when he heard Fiona's call softly outside the tent, "Suoso."
